I grew up in Spencerport, right outside of Rochester. A large percentage of the kids in my school had parents who worked at Kodak. My brother worked there. The whole region's standard of living was lifted by Kodak. We all felt a patriotic pride in the company. It was a good time to be alive.

What a shame.
